Appearing on show Jimmy Kimmel Live, the Democratic candidate also slammed her Republican rival’s claims that she ‘co-founded’ ISIS
PRESIDENTIAL candidate Hillary Clinton has hit back at Donald Trump’s 'wacky' claims over her health by opening a pickle jar during a chat show interview.
While speaking on ABC's Jimmy Kimmel Live, the Democratic hopeful also said her Republican rival could be an unpredictable opponent in the upcoming televised debates.

With the first contest scheduled to take place a month from now, Clinton joked about what to expect from her unorthodox opponent.
She said: "You've got to be prepared for wacky stuff. I'm planning on drawing off my experiences from elementary school."
Trump has suggested he might not attend all of the three scheduled debates.
Trump has thrown a series of barbs at Clinton, describing her as "crooked" and suggesting she has unspecified health problems.
Host Kimmel asked Clinton to open a jar of pickles to show she was in good health and also took her pulse as she brushed off a scandal over emails sent from a private server when she was Secretary of State.
After Clinton told Kimmel that she used FaceTime video calls to talk with her grandchildren, the host teasingly asked whether she had ever considered using the facility instead of email.
Clinton also slammed Trump's assertion that she and President Barack Obama “co-founded” death cult ISIS.

"Who would have guessed this audience would be so enthusiastic about the cofounder of ISIS?" Kimmel asked, after a rousing welcome for Clinton from the crowd.
Clinton responded that she thought "when Trump talks the way he talks, it actually helps the terrorists."
She added: "I do feel sometimes like this campaign has entered into an alternative universe.
"I have to sort of step into the alternative reality and, you know, answer questions about am I alive.”
